Rossman Lake
A small lake north of Rossburn on PR 577, Rossman Lake is a stocked walleye water under the southwestern walleye regulations. It is a quiet prairie lake for local anglers rather than a destination fishery. Fish it as part of a swing through the smaller walleye waters west of Riding Mountain.
